Saint Francis University Athletics Hall of Fame
Mary Markey attended Saint Francis from 1994-98 and helped lead the Red Flash to their first three Northeast Conference titles in women’s basketball.
When she left the program, Markey was the all-time leading scorer at SFU, and is still third with 1,709 points (as of 2011). She is also tied for fifth in rebounding (818), third in blocks (129), and fifth in steals (197).
Markey was the 1994-95 Northeast Conference Newcomer-of-the-Year, a two-time honoree on the All-Northeast Conference First Team, and the 1996-97 Northeast Conference Player-of-the-Year, but she often saved her best basketball for the end of the season. She was a four-time honoree on the Northeast Conference All-Tournament Team, and won the tournament MVP award in 1996 and again in 1998. Markey led the Red Flash to a remarkable 81-38 record (.681) during her career, including a 58-12 (.829) mark in Northeast Conference contests.
Saint Francis University is proud to honor Mary Markey with induction into the Athletics Hall of Fame on this date, Saturday, February 5, 2011.
